When you buy a plum blossom coupling , it is easy to install a star coupling by accident. After installation, the two are almost the same in shape, so how to distinguish these two elastic couplings?
1. The elastic pads of the star-shaped coupling and the plum-blossom coupling are different. The petal volume of the plum-blossom pad in the elastic pad of the same type is larger than that of the star-shaped pad, and the petals of the plum-blossom pad are round while the star-shaped pad The petals are oval shaped like a rhombus.
2. Under normal circumstances, there are four claws in the middle of the star coupling, and three claws in the middle of the plum blossom coupling. Under the same model, the torque that the star coupling can withstand is larger than that of the plum blossom coupling, and the buffer effect of the plum blossom coupling on the transmission is relatively higher than that of the star coupling.For distinguishing the two couplings installed on the equipment, it is difficult to tell whether it is a plum blossom coupling or a only from the appearance , but it can be judged by the color, shape or number of claws of the elastic pad It is that kind of coupling. The exposed surface of the elastic pad of the star coupling is flat, while the exposed surface of the elastic pad of the plum blossom coupling is arc-shaped, and the color of the star pad is mostly red, while that of the plum blossom pad is The color is mostly yellow.
